+*.dtb.S
.dtb.S?
I think I have the correct .gitignore syntax.
What I meant was, where are you generating .dtb.S files that you need
to ignore them?
They are a byproduct of $(call cmd,dtc).

Normally make removes them automatically, but if you abort at just the 
right time, they can be left around.

If it is objectionable, I can just remove that .gitignore bit.

+  compatible = "octeon,octeon";
There's no model number at all for this board?

I think it should be:

	compatible = "octeon,octeon-3860";
That looks better.

Also, the part before the comma is generally the vendor, so I would
have expected cavium,XXX throughout rather than octeon,XXX.
OK, I will do that instead.

What is this 'unit-number' property for?
The AGL_SHARED register bank is shared among all the octeon-5230-mii
devices.  the 'unit-number' indicates the bit-field index that this
device should use within those registers.
Ok.  'cell-index' is the normal property name for this sort of
purpose.
Thanks, I will use 'cell-index'.
